Cleveland Gan Club. 
The weekly shoot of the Cleveland Gun Club was 
held on Saturday afternoon, June 29, at Shooting Park, 
Mayfield road. The shoot was not as well attended as 
we would like to see, but the hot weather and too 
much shooting for the last month has begun to tell on 
some and rest is needed. But those who attended put 
in the afternoon doing some good shooting. Mr. Doo¬ 
little was high gun in the first two events, the monthly 
and the annual, breaking 94 out of 100. The fine work 
of the day was done by Mr. F. W. Judd, who broke 50 
straight in the annual contest and 39 in the special 
events, making a total run of 89 in all, with good 
targets and a wind that kept the flag moving all the 
time. This is good shooting and is a record for any 
man, may the weather be hot or cold. 
I wish to announce to the many friends of Mr. John 
A. Flick that he is at his home a very sick man, and 
that it may be some time before we will see John on 
the firing line again. We are all wishing and hoping 
that he may be with us again, as he is one of the old 
standbys and the life of the game; and not to have 
him with us during the summer shoots one thinks 
he is not at home.

The Fourth of July shoot of the Cleveland Gun Club 
was a success. The weather was very warm, and when 
the program was shot out nobody was looking for 
special events. All were glad to pick up and look for 
an ice house. The program was divided into events 
of 100 targets each. The first was shot from 16yds.; the 
second from 16 to 20yds. The prizes in the first event 
were twelve cash ‘prizes, from $2.50 to $10, and a silver 
loving cup to each contestant making the best score out 
of each 20 targets shot at. The second 100 targets, 
handicaps 16 to 20yds., was a very pretty race. W. H. 
Archer won the beautiful Independence trophy with a 
score of 91, from 17yds. E. S. Rogers won the second 
prize, a silver cup, shooting from 18yds.. and making a 
score of 90. Geo. Burns, the third, a silver loving cup, 
88 out of 100 from 19yds. The high gun trophy was won 
by E. S. Rogers, who broke 182 out of 200 from 16 
and 18yds. All hands got a little of the money and 
went home happy, as it is the long green stuff that 
makes the boys smile, no matter how small it is.
